There are many fantasies in the audio industry about mixing and matching cables. We have for many years combined not only different brand of cables but different forms of conductors such as ribbon and solid core. Case in point I happen to like bi wiring with the Nordost Vahalla and the Synergistic reference speaker cables. Experiment to your hearts consent and let your ears be the criteria. You will not damage anything and maybe shocked at how good 2 totally different runs of cable can sound. Also if one run is 8 feet and the other 6 do not be disconserted that the sound is going to arrive at different time intervals. With the run of cables that most people use in their systems due to the length you will never hear any difference.
2 different cables on biwire speaker
Has anyone ever tried to use 2 different brands of cable on their speakers at once? I noticed I get a cleaner bass if I use pure silver on the bass drivers. But it gives me to much glare if I run it on my tweeters. Is it ok to run 2 different cables ( same length ) or will it hurt my speakers?
